DESCRIPTION
The resistors are constructed on a high-grade ceramic body (aluminum oxide). Internal metal electrodes are
added at each and connected by a resistive paste, which is applied to the substrate. The composition of the
paste is adjusted to give the approximate resistance required.
The resistive layer is covered with a transparent protective coating. Finally the two external end terminations are
added. For case of soldering the outer of theses end terminations is a Tin (lead free) alloy.

TRIMMING INTRODUCTIONS
Typical value for a YAG-laser;
cutting speed
laser power
bite size
: 10-200 mm/sec,
: 1-6 Watt,
: 3~10µm ( = speed / Q_rate , Bite Size is the distance each laser spot moving and
influence the trimming accuracy)
maximum trimming length : 60% of resistive film width, minimum distance from end termination to trimming
cut : 0.20mm, minimum distance between cuts (double-cut) : 0.5mm
Protection of the laser cut
by epoxy-fenol lacquers, epoxy resins or silicon alkyd-resins.
This is necessary for humidity test and stability under loaded.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Product characterization
Standard values of nominal resistance are taken from the E24 series for resistors with a tolerance of 0/-20%,
and 0/-30%. The values of the E24 series are in accordance with “IEC publication 60063”
Derating
The power that the resistor can dissipate depends on the operating temperature; see Fig.2
Figure 2
Maximum dissipation in percentage of rated power
as a function of the ambient temperature
MOUNTING
Due to their rectangular shapes and small tolerances, Surface Mountable Resistors are suitable for handling by
automatic placement systems.
Chip placement can be on ceramic substrates and printed-circuit boards (PCBs).
Electrical connection to the circuit is by individual soldering condition.
The end terminations guarantee a reliable contact.

SOLDERING CONDITION
The robust construction of chip resistors
allows them to be completely immersed in a
solder bath of 260°C for 10 seconds.
Therefore, it is possible to mount Surface
Mount Resistors on one side of a PCB and
other discrete components on the reverse
(mixed PCBs).
Surface Mount Resistors are tested for
solderability at 235°C during 2 seconds. The
test condition for no leaching is 260°C for 30
seconds. Typical examples of soldering
processes that provide reliable joints without
any damage are given in Fig 3.
